Footfocus provides expert diagnosis, advanced treatments and personalised rehabilitation to relieve foot, ankle and lower limb pain, helping you stay active, move freely and enjoy life.
Shockwave Therapy is a non-invasive treatment used to stimulate healing in chronically painful tendons and soft tissues. It can be particularly effective when symptoms have persisted for several months and have not responded adequately to rest, exercises or other conservative measures.
At Footfocus Sports & MSK Podiatry, Shockwave Therapy is used as part of a comprehensive treatment approach rather than as a standalone intervention. Every patient undergoes a detailed assessment to identify the underlying cause of their symptoms before treatment is considered.
Shockwave Therapy delivers controlled acoustic waves into injured tissue. These sound waves stimulate a biological response within the affected area, encouraging healing and reducing pain.
Treatment is typically completed over a series of appointments and requires no injections or surgery.
Suitability depends upon the condition, stage of injury and individual assessment findings.
Treatment sessions are relatively short and are usually performed in the clinic without the need for anaesthetic.
Some discomfort during treatment is normal, although intensity can be adjusted to maintain comfort.
Following treatment, patients are usually able to continue normal daily activities, although specific guidance regarding exercise and rehabilitation will be provided.
